UNSPSC 50325013: Dried chinotto oranges

The variety of oranges known as chinotto oranges that have been dried for preservation.

UNSPSC 50325013 Dried chinotto oranges, a Commodity code, does not align with the state and local procurement activity currently tagged under it. The recent opportunities posted under this code—fresh produce for school nutrition programs, cafeteria food products for correctional facilities, and dried prunes—span fresh fruits and vegetables, proteins, dairy, grains, and preserved fruits, but do not include chinotto oranges specifically. The code's nominal scope (a specialty citrus product) diverges from what state and local jurisdictions are actually buying under this tag, which is a broader category of food commodities for institutional food service. School districts, state correctional systems, and state general services departments are the primary issuing bodies, with response deadlines clustering in late May and June 2026.

Geographic activity concentrates in Georgia, Connecticut, and Texas. The Hancock County Board of Education (Georgia) solicited fresh produce for the 2026-27 school year via IFB #SN002-2027, due June 26, 2026, with over 200 line items including apples, berries, cruciferous vegetables, citrus, and specialty fruits; the City of Bridgeport (Connecticut) requested commodities for its Board of Education Nutrition Center via electronic IFB, also due June 26, 2026, covering eggs, poultry, cheese, beef, and fruit and vegetable products; and the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ), through the Comptroller of Public Accounts, issued an IFB for cafeteria food products spanning approximately 382 line items of proteins, frozen entrees, dairy, grains, and vegetables, with a response deadline of May 4, 2026. The State of Georgia also posted a general food, supplies, and other kitchen products solicitation due June 22, 2026. No recent opportunities under this code genuinely match dried chinotto oranges, signaling either a tagging error or minimal current demand for that specific commodity in state and local procurement.
